Quick Connects are a way for you to create a list of destinations for common transfers. For example, you might create a Quick Connect for Tier 2 support. If agents in Tier 1 support can't solve the issue, they will transfer the contact to Tier 2.
The type of a quick connect specifies the destination. You can specify one of the following destinations.
•External quick connect
Contacts are transferred to an external number (such as an on-call pager)
•Agent quick connect
Contacts are transferred to a specific agent as part of a contact flow
•Queue quick connect
Contacts are transferred to a queue as part of a contact flow
